The reason why so many rose lovers are obsessed with La Vieille Ferme, aka “Chicken Wine” is because it infuses the perfect blend of grape, making it an affordable dupe alternative to Whispering Angel Rose wine, which is sold for over double the price. 

This bottle of rose got its viral nickname because of its rooster logo, which not only makes La Vielle Ferme easily identifiable, but perhaps easier to pronounce to, as ‘Chicken Wine’. 

Kirsty Barret took to her TikTok as soon as she found that Sainsbury’s had stocked a new sparkling version of the viral wine, for those who prefer a bit of fizz to their rose.
